Saif Ali Khan Faces Loss of ₹15,000 Crore Ancestral Properties Under Enemy Property Act

The Madhya Pradesh High Court dismissed Khan's petition, clearing the way for the government to claim the Pataudi family's Bhopal estates.

  • The Madhya Pradesh High Court ruled against Saif Ali Khan's plea challenging the classification of his family's Bhopal properties as 'enemy property.'
  • The Enemy Property Act allows the government to seize properties belonging to individuals who migrated to Pakistan or China after conflicts with India.
  • The properties, valued at ₹15,000 crore, were inherited by Khan from his grandmother Sajida Sultan, who was recognized as the legal heir of Nawab Hamidullah Khan.
  • The court's decision gives the Khan family 30 days to appeal to the Appellate Tribunal, but they have not yet taken legal action, and the deadline has passed.
  • The government is now positioned to take control of the estates, raising concerns among residents and tenants living on the affected properties.
